Frequently asked questions...

Before you start temping or even during your assignment there are many questions that you may want to ask.  Hopefully the following will give you a better understanding of temping with Alexander Grey.  If you still have any questions feel free to give us a call any time.

Why should I temp? 
• Temping can add to your existing skill base
• It’s a great way to move back into the workforce

What do I wear?
• Your best bet is to ask your consultant what the work environment and expectations are.
• We generally recommend business attire, at least for the first day of your assignment,
  so you can then see what is acceptable within the company.

What if I miss the timesheet deadline?
• Call your consultant as soon as possible.  If you miss the timesheet deadline,
  there are no guarantees that you will be paid on time.

What if I don’t like the assignment?
• Speak to your consultant.  They will be able to help with any concerns that you may have.

Can I take time off?
• As temping is generally a short term arrangement it is expected that you need not
  to take time off, except in a case of emergency.
• If you need to book an appointment it is best to book it before or after work.

What do I do if I am sick or can’t make it to work?
• If for any reason you are unable to get to your temp assignment on time, or are not
  able to turn up on a particular day (e.g. if you are sick), please contact Alexander Grey
  and we will let the client know on your behalf.
